My guest today reminds you that you are destined for magnificence. Julie Reisler wants you to be your Youest You and express your greatness.

Today’s guest, Julie Reisler, explains the question she was asked by her coach that changed her life forever fifteen years ago. It took Julie polishing off two pounds of M&Ms in a 15-minute sitting and getting sick for three days afterward to realize that something significant needed to be addressed in her life. Julie was using food to cope with her and would eat to feel better and distract herself from what was going on inside of her.

Today, Julie is a board-certified master life and wellness coach, and was voted ‘Top 10 Most Influential Life Coaches in 2023’. She mentors thousands of coaches, change-makers, and soulful entrepreneurs. Julie hosts The You-est You® podcast, a global show in over 175 countries, and is the author of Get a PhD in YOU, an Amazon top-pick. Julie has been featured in Forbes, MindBodyGreen, The Chopra Center, Bustle, and Thrive Global for her work as a coach, teacher, and conscious business leader. Julie is a multi-time TEDx speaker and has spoken on stages throughout North America. She is also a popular course creator on Insight Timer, the number-one ranked mindfulness app.
